Several RM035 wristshots after 1 year

Jun 04, 2013,05:35 AM
 

Following this week's WristScan theme, I realised my Nautilus and my RM035 were one year old and that I stored several wristshots in that time.


I love my RM035, even if, as I already have mentioned it, I love RM's brushed cases too (and I miss one). But the dial's dark depth, the very high finishing standard, especially of all the movement parts, and the technical choices, make this watch so mesmerizing, I really can't get rid of looking at it during the day.

It is of course the ultimate sport timepiece regarding shocks resistance as well.

A 4.3 g movement, Magnesium alloyed case, carbon fiber inner flange, double barrel, free-sprung balance, Titanium structure, manual winding with sliding flange, Chronofiable certified(1)... these are a few but remarkable elements of this watch and put forward what make it different from the standard production in watchmaking.

As I wish (as anyone here on this forum) to beat François-Xavier in a Wristscan Battle Contest at least ONCE in a life time, these are the pictures!


I hope you'll enjoy them and don't hesitate to share your best wristshots too!

Cheers,

Mark

(1) Chronofiable test : 


The Chronofiable® test, developed at the beginning of the 80’s by the CCF SA (centre de contrôle de la fiabilité de l’horlogerie Suisse, taken over in 1985 by the Laboratoire Dubois SA), was devised to expose timepieces to an accelerated aging test simulating over 21 days, the equivalent of 6 months effective wear. This is achieved by the execution of a long series of tests such as the initial monitoring of the movement functions, an additional rate, the amplitude test taken at two temperature levels (0°C and 50°C), the monitoring of the power reserve and the winding velocity. Included in this artificial ageing cycle test are extensive linear and angular accelerations as well as some 20,000 shocks ranging from 250 to 5500 m/s2 (9.81 m/s2=1g). 


The last step is a final monitoring phase applying the same elements than during the initial monitoring. Conditions like these attest unequivocally to the ability of the movement to withstand an array of extreme conditions without experiencing any effects on its performance.

Thanks a lot for your words, I appreciate. I must say that many of these pictures were lucky shots (and many were left in the bin :p) I didn't dare to compare with Fx on a Quality standpoint but, as he always provides us with many wristshots after his fai...
